Apple Music Won't Play Purchased Songs

When I purchase a song from an album on iTunes, the same song will not play if I am trying to listen to the full album on Apple Music. What settings can I change so that Apple Music will play songs regardless of whether I've purchased them or not? It's really annoying to listen to an album on Apple Music but have a song skipped because it is one I've purchased.

Why won't entire album play in Apple Music? We have an Apple Music subscription but an album (De-Lovely from the movie of same title) will only play two songs. Have we don't something wrong?

Songs from a purchased album are missing from music I purchased an album a while back on itunes on my ipad. The complete album I purchased has 23 tracks total. I’ve noticed recently that I only have 8 of those tracks showing and playable in the music app. If I go into itunes it shows purchased next to the album and each of the 23 songs but no option to play the full song or redownload any that are missing. They are not in my purchased list of music or in downloads. When I go into the music app and try to add one of the missing songs to my library it prompts me to subscribe to apple music. Why can’t I redownload music that I purchased? Even though I have 8 of the tracks in music and itunes shows them all as purchased, itunes app will only play a demo of any song, even the ones i can play in full in music.

itunes august 2022 Why can't I simply preview and then but a song from the itunes store? Every time I try I get a pop up telling me to try apple music. I don't want to try or join apple music. I just want to find songs, preview them and then purchase them.

This sounds like a bug that I have never tried or heard of before. I suggest you make it known to Apple using this link:
